The River Runs Through the Boreal and Me with Dahti Tsetso

“The Dehcho is a significant river to us here; it connects us all.”

For Dahti Tsetso, the Dehcho River has been a constant presence in her life. From her earliest memories, its waters have shaped her identity, connected her to her community, and nourished the Boreal Forest around her. The river embodies resilience, balance, and tradition.

But the river is facing challenges: water levels are dropping, temperatures are warming, and landslides are reshaping its course. These changes threaten the land and the relationships that the river fosters. Learn how Indigenous-led stewardship is helping to protect the Dehcho and its future.
